8. It's hard to predict the heart of the emperor
Mu Jieyu took Bai Su and fled away with almost all his strength. Since she left the army two years ago, no one has made her so afraid. That person is definitely not the result of her and Bai Su's strength.
For those who can resist, if he catches up, it will be difficult for her and Bai Su to escape.
Even though he didn't feel like he was being followed, Mu Jieyu still made a long circle before meeting up with Mu Jieyan.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" As soon as Mu Jieyan saw Mu Jieyu, he immediately noticed that her face was a little pale and her breath was a little messy.
"I'm fine, brother, let's leave quickly." Mu Jieyu shook his head, didn't say much, and walked quickly towards the carriage.
When Mu Jieyan saw this, he also knew that he must be encountering something difficult. Seeing that his sister was not seriously injured, he did not pursue the matter and immediately set off as a team.
However, just after Mu Jieyan got on his horse, a horse galloped towards them from a distance. Mu Jieyan was immediately on guard. Only when he saw that the person coming was his father's entourage did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Young Master, I have been ordered by the master to deliver a message." The man rode up to Mu Jieyan, performed a fist-cup salute on the horse, and said, "The master is at Kasyapa Temple now, and asked you to take him with you.
Miss, please change your route."
Mu Jieyan frowned: "Why is father at Kasyapa Temple?"
“Come with me!”
Mu Jieyan's heart trembled, then he nodded and said, "I understand."
Why is the holy chariot at Kasyapa Temple? Mu Jieyan has doubts in her mind. Even Mu Jieyu, who has just entered the carriage, is confused. She is even more confused about why her current father, Mu Zhong, is accompanying the chariot.
In fact, Mu is the surname of Da Jing, and Mu Zhong is the legitimate son of Mu Cheng, the current auxiliary prince. It is natural that he belongs to a famous family. However, Mu Zhong has been kicked out of the family by Mu Cheng, but few people know about it.
When the Mu family was in Da'an, it was already a century-old family. Later, they abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, making indelible contributions to the great prosperity. The foundation in Yongjing was very deep.
The eight great meritorious families are even more unshakable.
However, Mu Zhong, a noble son who was originally the prince of the country, was disliked by Mu Cheng because he liked businessmen and disliked scholars when he was young. Later, he fell in love with the daughter of a rich man in Nanjiang and turned against Mu Cheng, so he was expelled from the family.
Mu Zhong and his beloved wife Lu finally got married, but because of this incident, Lu felt guilty and fell ill after giving birth to Mu Jieyan. In the thirteenth year of Fengze, Lu became pregnant again.
, on September 1, the thirteenth year of Fengze, a baby girl was born half a month past the expected date of delivery, but she was stillborn.
Aunt Qiu, who had fled to Nanjiang a long time ago, knew that Mu Jieyu could not follow any of them, otherwise she would be in danger. She had already set her sights on the Lu family after hearing the strange thing about the Lu family's aunt's child not being born.
In the eyes of Aunt Qiu, the Lu family was rich, had been doing business for generations, and was far away from the imperial capital, so she was the best candidate. So on the day Lu gave birth, she had been secretly planning for a long time and was preparing to transplant the family. What was even more coincidental was that Lu happened to give birth to a stillborn child.
, which made Aunt Qiu and others feel less guilty.
Due to her late birth, Mu Jieyu was born fair and tender, and no one doubted it. So Mu Jieyu transformed from a subjugated princess into a daughter of the Mu family.
Thinking of all these, Mu Jieyu couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. She thought that Aunt Qiu and others must not have found out the identity of the uncle of the Mu family. This was not because they were negligent. After all, Mu Zhong's incident happened in such a turbulent time.
